See how you do, elected officals, who took the quiz, scored less than
50%


That was cool.

I did ok, surprisingly.

ou answered 27 out of 33 correctly - 81.82 %


Two of them were completely bogus - two correct answers in the same
question. The one about the First Admendment (correct answer includes
due process) and the taxation question which is totally FUBAR - taxes
equals government spending also means zero debt and growth.

30 out of thirty two and IN FACT, I nailed it.

Morons.


Well, it's for sure you didn't beat Harry. Just keep that in mind.

And quit calling us morons. We can't all be civics majors.

87.88%
Question #4 - B. Would slavery be allowed to expand to new territories?
Question #7 - D. Gettysburg Address
Question #10 - C. Religion

Miss read the question 10 as Constitution and not 1st admendment
Question #30 - C. decreasing taxes and increasing spending
Is what the government does, not what they should do.
